Whackanape

From Dragon Quest Wiki

The whackanape is a powerful primate that, contrary to its name, thankfully never casts any instant death spells.

A purple pallet swap of the jackanape, it has proven the most popular of the troop and has gone on to appear in spinoff titles while the other two have yet to reappear.
